The Nemesis Pod is an alternate ammunition type for the Improved Narc Missile Beacon.

Description[edit]

Developed to offer greater flexibility to iNarc-equipped units, the simple and devious Nemesis Pod is a variant of the standard Homing Pod that features equipment to broadcast a wide-band homing signal specially tuned to override and draw both friendly and enemy Narc equipped SRMs and LRM missiles, as well as enemy Semi-Guided LRMs and even Arrow IV homing missiles, to strike the target to which its attached. Like all its iNarc brothers, the pod can be brushed off by a determined target.[1]
